David Turpie.
IEvansuille Courier

We need not repeat opinions that have been
freely expressed in the Courier touching the emil
nent qualifications of Judge Turpie for the Office
of United States Senator. Speaking frankly, he
would be the Courier's choice for the position If
the question were simply one of individual pref
erence. More fully than any other man 10 Indi-
ana OF our day does he possess the varied intel
lectual, moral and philosophical forces essential
in disposing of the great affairs that belong to the
realm OF statesmanship. He is not only endowed
with great mental powers, but from his youth his
tastes have always been those of the student and
his great requirements extend into every depart
ment Of knowledge. As lawyer, he stands at
the head of the Indiana bar, while his efforts in
literature, although they have been confined
mostly to performances in the line OF his probes
sion, all show the ease and discri nination that
belong TO belleslettres scholarship.

willing to Leave 1t TO the Courts.

IRichmond Democrat
Mr.. Smith is willing 10 leave it to the courts as
to who has the legal right to preside over the
Senate. Mr.. Robertson is not. NJ. Smith is
Democrat with firm, fixed principles which
prompt him 10 DO right, aud asks nothing of Mr.
Robertson tbat he is not willing to grant to him.
Mr. Smith feels that he is entitled to act as
LeutenautGOvernOr, and is willing to abide by
the decision Of the courts. II the court says to him
thathe is not entitled to act in that capacity he
will manfully step down TO O seat in the Senate
and obey the rulings OF that body, the same as
any other member. Dir. Robertson is a Rspub-
hoan, with the same old non-principle idea of
anything to beat and get power. so that the great
monopOlies can ill their vaults from the hard
earned wages OF the la5oring men. Mr. Robertson
will find he can not bulldoze Mr.. Smith and the
thirty one Democratic Senators. The Senate will
not elbow him to preside over them unless he can
get decision from court which sets forth that he
has the right to do SO.

SENATOR HARRISON.

The Republican caucus last night defied
fate and nominated Senator Harrison for re-
election.
Three Knights of Labor refused to go into
the caucus.
And it was well they did. They have long
memories, and they remember 1877. 1t was
in July of that year that the great railroad
strike occurred. Here in indianapolis
there was trouble. and the citizen
most conspicuous in putting down the
strike" was no less a person than Senator
Harrison. His voice was for shooting down
the strikers. He went so far as to become
the Captain of company. The company
was raised without warrant of law, and be-
fore the strikers had refused to obey any
court mandate. When Senator Harrison
was not arming and drilling his company he
was making infammatory appeals to destroy
the strikers by bayonet and ball.
Ill this is clear in the recollection of the
knights of Labor.
In his despair, the Senator urges the Jour
nal TO examine his record in Congress. The
Journal does so with q microscope and a
sieve.
And what does il find
Nothing more than that on several occa-
sions the Senator PRESENTED memorials"
1t won't do, Senator, it won't do.
The Knights demand a better showing OF
repentance than this. The three Knights
who stood out last night will continue to
stand out as long as Senator Harrison is in
the field.
They can not forget July, 1877.

STRIKERS ON THEIR ROUNDS.
Employees OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company Ordered to Quit Work.

JERSEY CITY, n. j., Jan. 16-The PennsyI-
vaDia Railroad Company's yard at Harsimus
Cove, Jersey City, was invaded at about 3
o'clock this morning by party of about 80
strikers and their sympathizers. They
marched directly to the float bridges, where
brskemen we're engaged in placing tram OF
forty eight coal-cars upon transfer 5srges.
The coal was to be sent TO High Bridge, ".
Y. for the use of the New York elevated
roads. This has been done nightly since the
strike was inaugurated, and the strikers had
Just heard of it. The brakemen were ordered
to quit work in tones that brooked no re-
fusal. They complied and left the cars.
The strikers followed them up the yard as
far as Henderson street. Here the strikers
remained for nearly an hour. When it was
seen that the brak emen did not eturn, the
invaders marched through Henderson street
in the direction of Hoboken. During the
interim several of the brakemeR returned to
the yard from the Warren-street entrance.
which was not guarded By the strikers.
Word was telephoned to them when the
latter disappeared. The orakemen then re-
sumed work, aud, with the assistance of
clerks, watchmen and other employees of the
company, succeeded in placing the remain
ing cars upon floats, which were promptly
towed away. The entire delivery was made
without further trouble.
The situation at other railroad yards al d
coal docks is unchanged. No disturba noes
were reported during the day. The coal
companies have announced their intention
of resuming work, with or without their
former employees tomorrow morning. The
jersey City police have received instructions
to remain at the station houses when not on
patrol duty until further orders. Patrol
wagons will be provided to transfer officers
in case of disturbances arising.
There is no change whatever in the strike
st Lorillard & Co.'s tobacco works, and none
of the $500 idle emp owes viii resume work
tomorrow Efforts will be made tomorrow
to adjust the differences between the firm
aud It's employees, sndft is believed that the
strike will be short lived.

viii Not Tolerate 1t.
Lebanon Pioneer.l

Under the Constitution OF Indiana there is NJ
way under heaven for the Republicans of the
Legislature to elect United States Senator with
out unseating two Democrats and seating in their
stead two Republicans, and this is a proceeding
the gallant and fearless Democratic members viii
not tolerate. The Constitution provides that the
election OF States Senator shall be by the vote OF
q majority of all the members elected to the Leg
islature, not a majority Of those present, and as
the Democrats have a majority of two on joint
ballot the above course viii be necessary to the
election of a Republican. 1t was the Republican
party that first advocated revolution, and it has
been their cry ever since the election.

last night unanimously adopted resolutions,
printed in this mornings issue of the Senti-
mel, condemning most emphatically the
action of the Republican majority of the
House in unsesting Representative Meagher,
of Vigo. The committee declares that by
virtue OF this unjust treatment OF an
honest y-elected Representative the Repub-
lican party shows its hostility to the cause
of labor. That the condemnation is de-
served must be admitted by every

protest against the outrage that was being per

spirators carried out the pre-arranged programme
in high-handed manner.

hr. Robertson surely ought not 10 covet the Of
fee Of Lieutenant-Governor unless the election
thereto was legal and according to law. And as
for Smith, the Democrats OF the Senate win refuse
to uphold him one minute after the court decides
the question, should It decide against him. tits
unfortunate the complication has arisen, but it
looks suspicious that the Republicans should be
so fearful Of decision from the courts. Their
action in this respect is suggestive OF the guilty
prisoner, who hates the courts the burned
